Abstract: Antenna carriers with magneto-dielectric material and beam-shaping elements for enhanced performance and radiation safety of electronic devices are described. One electronic device includes a housing, an antenna element disposed on an antenna carrier, and a printed circuit board (PCB) disposed within the housing, the printed circuit board including radio frequency (RF) circuitry. The antenna carrier can be made up of a plastic cap, a ground plane, and a magneto-dielectric substrate with both dielectric and magnetic properties. The plastic cap is disposed at a first side of the housing and the magneto-dielectric substrate is disposed on a top surface of the plastic cap. The antenna element is disposed on a bottom surface of the magneto-dielectric substrate and electrically coupled to the RF circuitry. The antenna element radiates electromagnetic energy in a resonant mode and the magnetic property of the magneto-dielectric material increase efficiency, frequency bandwidth, or both.

Abstract: A user device obtains sensor data from sensors included in the user device. A set of current state information is determined based on the sensor data. A tuner code associated with the current state information is identified. Tuning values associated with the tuner code are varied during a training stage to determine an optimized tuner code. One or more antennae of the user device are tuned for communication in accordance with the optimized tuner code.

Abstract: An electronic device including a Near Field Communication (NFC) antenna and a slot antenna is described. The slot antenna may be formed by a slot opening in a housing of the electronic device. The slot opening may be shaped as a rectangular slot, a T-shaped slot, or T-shaped slot leading into a circular opening. The slot opening exposes the NFC antenna and allows the NFC antenna to radiate in a first frequency band while the slot antenna radiates at a second frequency band.

Abstract: Antenna structures and methods of operating the same of an electronic device are described. One wearable electronic device includes a housing of conductive material and an antenna structure disposed on or within a band that is used to affix to a user. The antenna structure includes a first connector, a second connector, and a first antenna element. The first and second connectors extend out from sides of the band and electrically couple to a RF feed and a ground point when the first and second connectors are physically coupled to the housing. The RF circuitry is operable to cause a first current flow on at least the first antenna element via the first connector to radiate electromagnetic energy in a first frequency range.

Abstract: Antenna structures and methods of operating the same of an electronic device are described. One apparatus includes a circuit board and an antenna having a ground element disposed on the circuit board. A ground-extension bracket is coupled to the ground element and oriented orthogonally to the circuit board. The antenna further includes a radiating element disposed on the circuit board and oriented linearly with respect to the ground-extension bracket. The antenna, in response to a radio frequency (RF) signal, is configured to radiate electromagnetic energy in a radiation pattern at an angle of polarization with respect to a plane of the circuit board, where the angle of polarization is acute and angled towards the ground-extension bracket.
